“Driving impaired doesn’t only endanger yourself, but risks the lives of all the adults and children you share the road with,” spokesman Mark Jenkins said in a release. “Although AAA is proud to provide this life-saving program, we urge people to identify a safe ride home before they party, and treat Tow to Go as their last resort.”

The program is free for AAA members and non-members for one person, including a ride for their vehicle to a safe location within a 10-mile radius.

“Appointments cannot be scheduled in advance to use Tow to Go. It is designed as a safety net for those that did not plan ahead. Always choose a designated driver before celebrating,” the group said.

For a tow, call 855-286-9246 if you need a safe ride.
